Trevor Lansing
Played by Stephen Macht
Written by
Laurie
Trevor was a very successful attorney from New York. He was also the
estranged father of Port Charles District Attorney Ric Lansing. Trevor
was fearless, arrogant, intelligent, and sarcastic and a bit of a
womanizer from way back. He had no redeeming qualities.
Trevor represented the powerful New York mob boss Anthony Zacchara. Trevor had little, if any, relationship with his son,
Ric. Trevor and Ric
didn’t see eye to eye on anything. As far as Trevor was concerned, Ric was
inept and a failure. He seemed to genuinely dislike his son. At one
point, he hired a woman named Marianna to make Ric fall in love with her,
just to get a deed to some property that Ric owned.
Trevor hated Sonny. Years ago, Trevor had a relationship with
Sonny’s mother. Trevor blamed Sonny for the end of that
relationship. Trevor was trying to use his connection to Anthony Zacchara to bring
Sonny to his knees. Trevor also had a past connection to
Kate Howard; they were
lovers, years ago. Trevor was extremely jealous of Kate’s friendship
with Sonny.
Trevor turned out to be in control of Anthony's crime empire while
Anthony was crazy. He helped cover up the fact that Anthony shot Kate on her
wedding day while pretending to be paralyzed. In 2008, Ric finally
confronted his father for everything he did, but Trevor just continued to
ignore and reject him. It was also revealed that year that he had raped
Claudia when she was a teen.
During the bio-toxin outbreak and explosion at GH in 2009, Trevor left
Anthony to die, chained to his bed. Later, Trevor fell off the roof in
the middle of a fight with Sam. It was a fitting end to a particularly nasty
character. It was only the charm and great acting skills of Stephen Macht
that made us want to see Trevor at all.
